Primary Identifier | MGI:2442495 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 12 | NCBI Gene Number | 319660 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Enables glyceryl-ether monooxygenase activity. Involved in triglyceride biosynthetic process. Is active in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Orthologous to human AGMO (alkylglycerol monooxygenase). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit reduced alkylglycerol monooxygenase activity and male mice exhibit reduced circulating cholesterol levels. [provided by MGI curators] |
